Rest: She sleeps on the table my mom gave me that was once my great-grandmother's. that is where her sunbeam rests in the morning. I woke this morning to find her settled on my yoga blanket, something she usually only likes to do if I am already sitting there.
Space: She jumps on the couch when I sit there, always on her side, and settles either on the New Yorker or a pile of citations I am working through for the professor I'm assisting. She is more than a paperweight - she is, as my friends say, my own research assistant.
Projects: She burrows under the blanket draped on the back of the couch, then decides to sit like a turkey and purr even when I'm not petting her.
